It's only as good as average player understands it. If I was given this as a quiz to match marks with their meaning, I would surely know what skull, cross mean, but then I'd go on to say:

* Square and Moon => someone do some CC on those

* Others => ????

I personally have a tendency to use Triangle on tank to mark where he is exactly.

As a new player, someday someone used Square on tank and I started to use that way, I thought It was the right, but it seems there is no pattern for this

We put star on the tank because they believed they were "the star" of the whole raid

The circle kinda looks like a condom, and the tank is our protection!

I used to put a square on the tank; because I was the tank, and I was called “Box”

I like to put the condom on the tank cause they are there for protection.

Most people don't use and don't need markers on tanks. So I don't think there is a set of rules for that.

Or healer for ranged stack mechanics, but yea this is the most accurate.

Back then it was skull x moon, and pretty much still is. Everything else is usually explained, “sap triangle” etc…

This is right. First four are solidified in my memory, everything else needs explanation for the fight
